      Why????????

      I am just absolutely dumbfounded, speachless even. I'm hoping some day to be able to buy a '69 Camaro and we have guys doing this to them. Yeah, I know, everybody has the right to "express themselves", but that doesn't mean I have to like it.

      I saw a yellow 67 or 68 that was set up the same way about 3 years ago. WTF are they thinking? Id be sick if I was at a mudhole and saw a car like that being trashed. Im pretty open minded but i know what mud does to a vehicle! The good thing is that it was for sale so mabey someone can save it.

      Hey, look on the bright side, every time someone destroys a 1st Gen, the value of ours goes up. There's only so many!

      4x4 camaro

      That photo is from last weekend's "Chevy Madness" show in Orange Coounty, CA. That car and a couple of others were for sale by a collector car consignment company. If I remember correctly, the asking price for this car was $15,500!! What a deal, eh??

      There are quite a few of these 1969 camaro bodies on blazer chassis floating around here on Long Island. When I used to work in Mineola there was a gas station that had a hugger orange rally sport on a lifted blazer chassis. Recently a Daytona Yellow one has begun parking around the corner from my house, I went to take a look at it one day (it had "for sale" written on it in white shoe polish but it looked old) and I popped the hood. My father used to have a real 1969 z/28 that he bought new (and I still have a lot of the cool parts for) and I have been trying to track down since he sold it so I know the trim tag by heart and was surprised to see that the car was a real z/28 body. Next time I see it I think I am going to leave a note. Incidently I have also seen a 1970 GTO on a lifted blazer chassis and a lifted 1976 El Camino out in suffolk county. A couple of years ago I went to look at a 1980 z/28 with a buddy and the seller had a 1973 camaro on a lifted 4x4 chassis. I seem to remember this kind of conversion being a semi-popular thing in the late 1970's - early 1980's and if done right all they do to get the body to fit is to weld body mounts to the chassis that bolt where the camaro subframe attaches and shouldn't be hard to undo.

      Geeto67,

      I'm on the island, Smithtown to be exact. I haven't seen any of these cars driving around, that's probably a good thing, especially if people are doing this to real Z/28s.

      The 76 El Camino I see in the Watermill - Bridge Hampton area all the time and I think the owner is a member of the local volunteer fire department as it has a set of wigwags on the roof. The Orange 69 RS was in Mineola, the Yellow 69 Z/28 is in flushing, Queens and I haven't seen it in a month, but next time I do I'll take pictures. The GTO I saw a long time ago in Riverhead. The 73 camaro Was at a storage facility in Coram and the owner had a hanger sized storage unit with some unbelievable unrestored cars stored inside (like a 1969 GTO ram air convertable, a 1969 RS 350, a 1968 GTO, and some other really cool cars). The thing we all keep forgetting about these cars now that they are worth a fortune is that over a decade ago they were just used cars with a value roughly equal to toilet paper. I cringe when I hear stories of my father blowing the rear out in his 1962 409 chevy or how he used to side step the clutch in his z/28 at 6000rpm.
